Hello, @canadiangal55,

I, too, was diagnosed with endometrial adenocarcinoma a year ago, at age 61. As Helen described, it was frightening. I was told that information over the phone while at home, so didn't have to drive myself afterward, thank goodness! I underwent surgery 2/23 and have been blessed with no spread detected and no recurrence to date.

I absolutely love the support offered by all here (and have hung on it for this past year+ now) and the specific suggestions for coping offered by @lbrockme, @aardvark2118, @diaz so far. Not sure what I would add to those as they are so key. I, too, agree that your hopeful and balanced outlook and the support you gather around you will continue to help you so much along the way. I will add you to my internal list of those I carry with me and send my best wishes each morning as I scan Mayo Connect.

Echoing.."we are with you in this journey."

@gynosaur42 I feel so blessed by the warm welcome of this online community. I go for a colonoscopy tomorrow and so the testing begins as I get closer to understanding the scope of my cancer and a treatment plan. I will also lean on this group of wise women as my journey unfolds.
